Kenton Dunson has dropped the first single off of his forthcoming mixtape, The Investment. “Count On It” supposedly samples Sesame Street’s animated pinball segment (Pinball Number Count, which frankly, I am too young to recognize), chosen because it carries a little more meaning for Dunson than for some others:
“Count on It” represents the unapologetic confidence you have when you have put your work in. I love how it incorporates a childhood sample that so many of us are familiar with. That helped me keep it ambitious but not overly aggressive!
